Investors in search for stocks with room to flourish should look no further than OTIC, with its expected earnings growth of 27%. This growth in the bottom-line is bolstered by an equally impressive top-line expansion over the same period, which is a sustainable driver of high-quality earnings, as opposed to pure cost-cutting activities.
